Tucked away among the trees in Asheville’s Kenilworth neighborhood, near Kenilworth Park, this 1920 Arts & Crafts cottage is easy to imagine as your little corner of the city. English ivy winds around the home, adding to the feeling that it has been quietly tucked here for generations. Go inside and the character of the home begins to unfold. High, flat ceilings and original hardwood floors throughout the main rooms give the cottage a warm, classic feel, while the kitchen area offers an opportunity to thoughtfully update the space for today’s lifestyle. The en-suite bath brings a charming piece of the past into everyday living, with a classic clawfoot tub that feels right at home in a house of this era. There is something especially appealing about the setting, close enough to walk to Kenilworth Park, yet tucked away enough to feel private and removed. With its 1920s character, mature surroundings and room for its next chapter, this is a home that invites you to settle in, make it your own and become part of its story.
